Again, another hand-written recipe I'm transcribing.
1 head cauliflower, cut into florets with core and stems set aside for another purpose
microwave cauliflower in 2 tbsp stock until tender, then drain.
2 tbsp butter
2 oz cream cheese
2 tbsp sour cream
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Put cauliflower into a food processor an pulse together with above ingredients.
Also consider adding:
2 cloves minced garlic, sauted in butter
a little green onion softened in the garlic and butter
Salt and pepper to taste
Reheat in microwave before serving if necessary. This doesn't actually taste like mashed potatoes, but it's a yummy substitute for someone who isn't eating potatoes.
Another option is just to grate the cauliflower in the food processor and microwave for 7 minutes. Don't add anything to the grate and when it's finished, stir it vigorously with a fork. The cauliflower begins to transform to a lumpy mash which can then be seasoned with a spoonful of whatever catches your fancy. Keeping it courser seems to keep it a little drier. Chiffonade or chop your favourite herb into this.
